Today I took all 14 of my young birds, put them in the basket, and we headed up the driveway. We went about 1/4 mile, to where you couldn't see the house or the loft, and hand released from there.
Birds flew up nicely, and circled a few times, while I got in the truck. By the time I got here, the first 3 were circling the loft.
I started getting a little worried, because the others took a while longer, but all but one made it to the house in 30 minutes. I'm not panicking, because maybe the missing one took a wrong turn. I'm sure it will be here shortly...
Tomorrow will be loft flying, I'll put them on the landing board, and open the door.
edit: all 14 made it in safely YAY!
